Injured on the Job?

Workers Compensation Attorney

If you have suffered an on the job injury and are suffering physically, emotionally, and/or financially as a result, you can likely qualify for benefits under California's workers compensation laws.

In California, as in other states, those who get injured accidentally at the workplace or while performing work-related duties off their employer's property, are entitled to collect a compensatory claim from their employer's state-mandated workers compensation insurance company.

But even when you have a valid claim and a basic idea of how California's workers comp system works, the details of which rules apply for particular injury types and of how to file and go through the whole process till you receive your claim, can be very complex.

There is no need, generally, to prove fault to collect on workers comp benefits, but if an employer was negligent, it's possible that fact could relevant in other respects. Plus, extreme negligence or self-inflicted injuries on the part of an employee could cancel his/her right to compensation.

Workers compensation will cover medical expenses stemming from an on-the-job injury, loss of income, retraining costs, expenses related to permanent injuries, and benefits to the survivors of one killed in an on the job fatality.

Wages are generally replaced at 2/3 of the average wage before the injury, but with a maximum cap applying too. And you cannot sue your employer for an injury you already collected workers comp benefits on.

Testimonials

The repetitive motions I did day in and day out at my manufacturing plant job eventually gave me carpal tunnel. That entitled me to workers comp benefits, but my employer tried to block me from filing. I called Orange County Workers Compensation Attorney and got my claim approved!

John P. of Santa Ana

My employer's insurance company at first refused to pay for my on the job accident. Then they tried to pay only a very slim percentage of the medical expenses. I knew this wasn't right, so I called up Orange County Workers Compensation Attorney and made it right.

Darlene M. of Irvine

I was exposed to benzene in my workplace, which eventually ended up giving me cancer. I was obviously devastated, but then I had trouble getting cooperation on my claim. If it weren't for Orange County Workers Compensation Attorney, I don't know how my family would have dealt with all the expenses and loss of income.

Wendy S. of Garden Grove

A workplace slip and fall accident, due to an unsafe work environment, led to my leg and back injury. Unfortunately, it took legal action to secure my claim, but without help from Orange County Workers Compensation Attorney, I would have been buried in medical bills with no income and no way to pay.

Candice L. of Newport Beach

For some reason, my employer seemed to think because I was an immigrant and a relatively low wage earner, he didn't have to cover my on the job injury with his workman's comp. But thanks to Orange County Workers Compensation Attorney, I got the compensation I was legally entitled to.

Moses S. of Mission Viejo

I kept careful track of all the medical bills and other expenses stemming from my workplace accident. And my employer and the insurance company didn't deny my claim. But they weren't paying what I thought was reasonable compensation either. I called up Orange County Workers Compensation Attorney, and I quickly saw the low-ball settlement offers evaporate when the insurance company had to negotiate with an experienced lawyer - someone with true "legal clout."
